Vibration White Finger Compensation Claims

Have you been diagnosed with Vibration White Finger? If you are suffering the pain and numbness caused by this debilitating syndrome, you could be entitled to a compensation payout.

Vibration White Finger (VWF) is a painful industrial disease. Also known as Traumatic Vasospastic Disease, Dead Fingers or Spastic Anaemia, symptoms include blanching of fingers (hence ‘white finger’) and pins and needles. VWF is often accompanied by pain and aching which leads to numbness and a lack of co-ordination.

Symptoms Sound Familiar?

If you’ve worked with pneumatic drills, grinders, chainsaws, sanders, lawnmowers and the like and are suffering these symptoms, it is possible you have VWF and you should seek a medical diagnosis as soon as possible so that a compensation claim can be instigated.

If your employer failed to adhere to the strict health and safety guidelines that govern the use of vibrating tools, you could be entitled to compensation.

Successful Claim Against Two Employers Wins Damages for Miner

Our client worked as a miner for 5 years. He regularly used vibrating tools, including compressed air picks, wind picks and pneumatic hammers. He then changed jobs and went to work for the District Council, as a general labourer. This involved him using hand held grinders, stihl saws and windy picks.

Some years later our client noticed discomfort in his hands when working outside and picking up and moving equipment. He suffered from numbness and noticed the tips of his fingers changed colour and went pale. He was subsequently diagnosed with VWF and with our help, won damages against both his current and former employers.
